The Ex-Boyfriends (2014)

Calgary, AB

The early oughts will not be remembered for their abundance of charismatic, magnetic, ego-driven frontmen — you know, those unique characters that come to larger-than-life on stage and enchant everyone in the room with their sexual nihilism and blind disregard for anything but the here-and-now. The Ex-Boyfriends stand alone in this regard, furious rock and roll led by a rare breed of performer, clad in fabulous threads and drenched in whiskey. Watch his ass shake for the change and abandon all pretence.
